Young Bun
Hi all
This is my first post, so not sure if I've chosen the right place to post.
Pabby is 9, completely blind and deaf. We lost his wife bunny a few months ago and due to his age and disabilities didn't try to find him a new partner. We were at the vets last week for something very minor and I got the impression the vet thought it really is time to let him go. He's never been ill, eats and grooms himself but it breaks my heart to watch him sit, all day long.
Now I'm not daft and I'm fully aware that he could potentially live for another 3 years but don't know what's best for his quality of life. Yes in theory I could try to find a new partner and this could give him a new lease of life, if his lack of activity is due to depression but this does make me nervous with his lack of sight and hearing.
Really hard decisions, please don't judge, really sad at the moment watching my little old man.
